Mission: Many of us are looking for ways to understand and address previously unimagined challenges in the world. Colorado Art Ranch believes that the arts, in collaboration with the sciences, can help solve contemporary land and social issues. Our organization strives to nurture the development of literary, visual and performing artists who ask difficult questions through their work; stimulate interdisciplinary collaborations that help envision solution; and build the creative capital in towns throughout Colorado.
Target demographics: adult thinkers who appreciate the arts and are concerned with world issues.
Direct beneficiaries per year: 250
Geographic areas served: Colorado and intermountain west
Programs: Our major activity for the year was to conduct six residencies at different wilderness biomes throughout the us. We worked with the usfs, usfws, blm, nps and the aldo leopold wilderness research institute. The artists worked for one month with scientists and then created artworks in reaction to their experiences. We traveled to each of these destinations to conduct the orientations.
carpenter residency. We hosted three artists for one month and gave two public talks about their work.
terraphilia residency. We had been running this residency and passed it on to the salida arts council along with donations that had been dedicated for that purpose.
